On the topic of standing up during games....

I went to Ralph Wilson Stadium last season for a Panthers game, a group of us actually. We were told to sit down by security "excessive standing" as he put it.

LMFAO at "excessive standing". What a damn joke. If there is some old fart or kids behind you, ok I get it. But if you are surrounded by a bunch of bros between the ages of 16-55, it's man-up-stand-up time bitches.

I'll admit that I stand from time to time, but what's the point? It isn't like the players get extra motivation. I still cheer my ass off, but the team is focused on the play, not how many fans stand.

The worst is when someone forces me to stand during a play because they needed to use the bathroom and couldn't wait the additional 5 seconds to get back to their seats.

You can cheer louder when standing...something to do with you diaphragm not being all compressed and stuff like it is when your sitting...ok I really don't even know what I'm talking about...

but you can still cheer louder when standing, and it's easier to high five everyone around you after a big play.

Stand during third down, stand during huge plays as they take shape, stand for big hits, stand for big moments. You don't need to stand any other time. This isn't college.

 

 

Exactly. All it takes is a little common sense to determine when to stand and when to sit. The sad part is select few seem to have a limited amount.

I don't mind folks standing on defense, big plays, or even when tensions are high.

But standing up the whole game is something that only inconsiderate, self-entitled douchebags do.

My girlfriend has back issues that do not allow her to stand for extended periods of time. the drive home from games are always tough on her because even the intermittent jumping out of her seat and cheering gives her horrible back spasms later. last year during the New England game, she spent a pretty good chunk of change getting us seats between the goal posts (money that she really did not have nor need to spend). we missed almost the entire first quarter because the five or six people in the row in front of us stood the entire time. I was fuming and finally had to tell them to sit down so that everybody else could also watch the game.

if someone is going to stand the whole game then they should just go and stand down by the rails or in the tunnels. other people have spent their money as well and might not feel like standing the whole game just so they can see over their stupid drunk ass.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By frankw · Posted

      You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.

      It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
